A few weeks ago, I was searching for Bible study material for a group of ladies from our church.
Since we would be meeting in a local coffee shop, it would not be convenient to use a
video-based study. That fact and the determination I had that the study be Bible-centered
limited my options. I'm SO happy to have found this particular Precept Bible study material.

At the first meeting, I asked how many women had been to an ocean shore.
I told them that their experience with this study would correspond to that experience.
Some put their toes in the ocean, others wade out waist-deep, some brave the waves.
Others snorkel and see details that many who only put their toes in miss.
Little did I know how accurate this analogy is!
Though I don't follow ALL the suggestions for Bible marking (a very complex system),
I was amazed by the treasures contained in the first chapter of I Peter
as I studied per the instructions this second week of the study.
What a treasure is my salvation!
How brief and temporary any sufferings I experience while in my "exile" here on earth!
What a hope I have of one day seeing Jesus face-to-face!
How enduring and powerful the Word of God!
How encouraging the bond of love we share as we gather!
“People are like grass;
their beauty is like a flower in the field.
The grass withers and the flower fades.
their beauty is like a flower in the field.
The grass withers and the flower fades.
But the word of the Lord remains forever."
(I Peter 1)

That Bible study sounds like a good one to share with your ladies.
